2. When we was creating our digipak we used a
template that was provided by college. This
helped us initially as we didn’t have sufficient
knowledge in regards to Photoshop to
produce this alone. The template provided
guidelines , however once we had completed
the basic outlines we were able to remove
the template. We did this by using the
visibility tool which was next to the layer. We
did this instead of deleting it just in case we
needed it again.
3. We had the idea to mimic the
Paramore logo to create brand
recognition. We comprised this of
multiple images of the band members
to reinforce our idea of the ‘tight knit
family’. In order for this to work
effectively we had to build up
numerous layers, we coloured these
accordingly so that we didn’t get
confused. This can be seen in the
right hand side bar. However, this
was very time consuming.
4. In order to create synergy between our
products we used the picture of the amp from
our magazine advert on the front of our
digipak. This will allow the audience to
recognise the link between our products. We
initially had an image of the band on the front
cover however we changed this as it was not
conventional of Paramore and because at
this point there was no link between this and
our ancillary products.
Moreover, when it came to inputting the
barcode and record label stamp, we realised
that we had not left enough room. We had to
remove two songs and two singles from the
DVD in order to fit these in.
